Motor and battery all arrived this morning. Customs label says value $30 "motorised kit for testing" and the postman just dropped it off with nothing to pay. Initial inspection looks good. Quality seems fine and all the bits look like they are there. No paperwork/instructions at all so I...

My wife is a Bowen ( The Official Bowen Association UK - The largest Bowen Association in the United Kingdom (Bowtech) ) practitioner and this therapy seems to help with this problem. Coming from another angle altogether, the Ergon Grips do improve comfort whilst taking some of the strain off...

I've ordered the freewheel crank and the 10AH battery / 2 hour charger combo. What would you be fitting it to if you do get one ? Watch this space for inspiration !! BTW doesn't that music on their web site get on your nerves !! Steve

Thanks Jeremy, The kit does indeed include a battery but as it's coming from Taiwan and not China I'm hoping all will be OK.

Had acknowledgement from Paco today saying they will ship on Thursday via EMS BTW what is EMS ??

Well, I've done it. I've ordered a 350w motor unit and a battery from Cyclone so we will have to see how long it takes to get here. It's to fit onto my Pashley TRI-1 so that I can haul my tools about easily. Hope it will do the job. Keep you posted !!

Do consider a Brooks B66 or B67. Very comfy for me and "real" leather.

Thanks, that's reassuring.

I will be purchasing a Cyclone 350w motor kit next week directly from the manufacturers in Taiwan. Question is should I get their battery, it's a, quote "10Ah24V LiFePo4 batteries pack in batteries bag +BMS+ 5A charger (2 hours)" and it can be seen here Electric bicycle DIY kits kit NuVinci...

How much import duty is charged when importing an Ebike kit from the far east ? I am considering the Cyclone from Tiawan and it's going to cost about $900.

what about this Bicycle Storage: Secure Bike Sheds: Trimetals Or this - Alien Odyssey

Thanks Tom, I'm now in touch and it seems almost sure that it wasn't Bob's fault. I think there was something wrong with my email settings. Sorry Bob !! So back to the original question. Will the 20" 24v kit do for my trike ( Pashley Cycles - Tri-1 Adult Tricycle ) as a load carrier ?

Perhaps Bob of Alien will read this. May be that my emails are not getting through. If anyone communicates with him please pass on my phone number (07748 655201 text is OK) so he can reach me and I can spend my money !! It all happens at one doesn't it ? Computer has gone "poof" now and I...

Not in my area by any chance are you ? I want to buy one of these but can't get a reply from Alien by email. Do you have any other way of contacting them

Are you running it in the restricted mode ?

Anyone got a kit of bits suitable for one of these. Don't mind if it's a hub motor in a 20" front wheel or a crank drive type.

I hope that's the case here as well but I've sent him four emails, the first on the 9th, and the rest after that and still no reply. I am assuming that he is away or that something has gone wrong with the technology and am waiting with baited breath !! I'm trying to spend 400 pounds !! BTW...

Unfortunately he doesn't answer any communication (phone or email) so I can only assume he's not interested in business !! How come it's so hard to spend money with these Ebike guys ??

That's good news because that would be the one I would prefer. Do you have a phone number for Bob of Alien because although he answered my first email he's not replied since !!
